I wanted to share my first year as an automotive journalist. I write for http://ecityofautos.com/. Please feel free to ask any questions. My first "ride & drive" was with Aston Martin in Buckhead, Atlanta at the grandiose Mandarin Oriental Hotel. My 2nd trip was with Infiniti in Boston for Q50. The 3rd trip was in New Port Beach, California for Nissan 360, a four day event with Nissan/Infiniti where i drove every model Nissan & Infiniti makes. The 4th trip was with in Nashville, Tennessee for the Nissan Rogue. My latest trip was with Audi in Palo Alto for the A3. Check out the rest of the pictures here: www.inonebreath.net

It is, I'm very fortunate to have met the people I've met doing this. It's def changed my outlook & has been so inspirational.

Do you have any work published or anything I can see?

One of many inspirational moments was meeting the legendary Shiro Nakamura, the designer of the GTR and every other JDM car you ever dreamed about growing up.
